Research suggests that women ought to take investing as
seriously as men, as it is generally recognized that at some
point in their lives 90% of women will be solely responsible
for their finances. Yet often women do not think about
finances until they are faced with a dramatic, life-changing
event. Many women postpone making financial decisions for
fear of making a mistake. Through lecture, discussions and
an optional companion guide (A Women's Guide to Investing
$15), this course will provide essential information about the
vocabulary, tools and strategies of investing, as well as the
benefits of integrating professional advice into a synergistic
financial plan, so participants can take charge of their financial
destiny and enjoy the journey.
